Overview
Kemsley Mill is the largest mill for recycled papers in the UK, and the second largest in Europe.
The mill has an annual production capacity of around 830,000 tonnes and is the second biggest recovered fibre-based paper operation in Europe. The site has been operating for almost 100 years, seeing major investments in the past decades and a major investment to expand its range of recycled paper products is currently underway.
The majority of the sites paper products are converted into board and boxes for packaging. The remaining produce is used for specialist papers. All their paper finished paper products are 100% recyclable and sustainably sourced, and this tour offers a great opportunity to see sustainability and recycling in action.
Please note spaces are limited so we encourage IChemE members to register soon to avoid disappointment.
